I'm not trying to grind on you but there are no absolutes in this. you say:
[I] "The DOD does not statutory civilian arrest powers in any way shape or form."[/I]
Not true, NCIS, CID, AFOSI, are civilian employees of the DoD components with plenty of statutory arrest authority.

Again, there is no tangible evidence that our municipal/county/state police and sheriffs are becoming "militarized" in ANY way with the exception of a few BDU style uniforms.
